Bloomington High School - Gothic Yearbook (Bloomington, IN)

IN MEMORIAM It is with deepest reverence that we pause at the outset of this book to pay our sincere respects to the memories of two Bloomington High School boys who have passed from us during the past year. Quiet and unassuming in life, so Russell Fish, sophomore, met his death. To say he is greatly missed by his teachers and classmates is inadequate. His modesty was highly com- mendable, particularly in view of the fact that he was a brilliant student. Russell inspired his associates to greater achievements and in so doing he attained a greater glory. Richard Brown, also a sophomore, was the second to pass from us during the past year. Although Richard's span of life was all too brief, still it was long enough to leave im- pressed on all who knew him the memory of his willing and cheerful personality. Richard is no longer here but his friendly greeting and happy smile will linger on through the years to come.

FOREIDORD ln the publication of this annual we, the staff of the l938 GOTHIC, have attempted to give a pictorial and written panorama of the activities and events of the school year of i937-38. We have endeavored to accomplish this purpose through our presentation of the parades of school life in Bloomington High School. The parades of personalities, activi- ties, and athletics appearing in the following pages are drawn up for your review. Aside from our primary purpose we have striven to be non-partisan in every respect, to represent the entire school, to show school life in B.H.S. as it is, to exercise a choice of good taste in every regard, and to construct our book in an interesting, distinctive, and permanent fashion. But we cannot tarry . . . the parades of school life in B.H.S. as characterized in the ensuing pages await our review.
